Headlights- model 9004 PIAA Platinum Superwhite or Xtreme White
Corner Lights (rewire to run at 27w)- model 1157 PIAA Xtreme White
Bumper Lights- model 168 or 192 PIAA Platinum Superwhite or Xtreme White
Turn Signals- model 1156 PIAA Xtreme White
Fog Lights- model H3 PIAA Platinum Superwhite or Xtreme White

If you get these bulbs, you will love your set up. Ive been running these bulbs for a while and love the look. Havent had any problems with any of the bulbs blowing either, but they do have a warranty if they do.

i have the piaa xtreme white bulbs all around...the bulbs will just be white no blue tinge i like it the revese lights headlights and my license plate lights are the shizznits...it's all on preference. make sure you stick to the name brand bulbs like nokya, piaa, and polarg.

Hey, you're from Waimanalo? Check out www.maximage.org I'm from Kailua.

To answer the main topic, Polarg and PIAA have some good wedge bulbs. However, the PIAA ones aren't as bright as stock, so for the license plate lights, it doesn't illuminate the plate as well.

What ever brand you decide to go with use it for all of the bulbs.
I personally use apc superwhites. Never had a problem out of any of
them and have had them for about a year.

i like nokya light bulbs........they give off a white light and dont burn a hole in your pocket (20 dollars for the pair). But i must agree with the fact that PIAA's are the best..........and so are sylvania silver stars
